Lakme Clean-Up "Clear Pores" range was in my eyes since the time I posted the Press Release. I was really disliking the oiliness and stickiness on my face due to humidity. I am using a Garnier Pure Active Neem face wash for pimple prone skin but I knew that I wanted something more. This is why I only purchased face scrub and face mask, also because face wash was sold off. Looks like people are loving it.
Lakme Clean-Up "Clear Pores" Face Scrub is cream/gel based scrub with really small and fine beads. My expectation from this range was that every item in this range would strip-off the moisturizer on my face but the scrub is really gentle and it didn't leave my skin with red patches. It didn't add an artificial layer on my face which makes you feel that your skin is squeaky clean. That very layer makes your skin  dry too. I must I am impressed because there are very less scrubs/exfoliators that do NOT leave your skin with red patches. It's just been over a week using the scrub. I have used it only twice and I am satisfied with it.
It is the most suitable for oily skin people because it has salicylic acid which does a great job in controlling sebum. I didn't find it drying hence people with dry skin can give it a shot if they like. It wasn't harsh for my sensitive skin.
You are supposed to use this scrub twice a week.
 Lakme Clean-Up "Clear Pores" Face Mask is clay like mask with green tint to it. it smells fresh and scent doesn't linger for long. I find one thing really annoying with creamy-clay-like masks that they don't apply evenly and you are supposed to work it. I like my masks smooth and even when applied. 
I used this mask just once and I found that it stays true to its claim that it tightens pores and face looks even. I am not in love with it though, but I don't dislike it either. I think I will re-apply this mask again when I want an instant cool, tingly and soothing 10-15 minutes for my face.
Both products give this tingly, fresh and clean face.
If you ask me, I'd suggest if you want to pick just one product among three, I'd say go for scrub. It is really fine and exfoliating.

SUMMARY

- Face scrub has fine, small and gently beads.
- Exfoliates nicely and the intensity you need for an oily or sensitive skin.
- Face mask is a creamy-clay based mask that doesn't apply evenly.
- But I didn't find any issues while washing it.
- It gives a tight pore illusion in just one use. I hope it actually works on pores as it claims.
